Patient phantom helps bring cranial SRS into mainstream
Stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) is a high-precision radiotherapy technique that's finding particular value in the treatment of multiple brain metastases. Cranial SRS, however, is also one of the most complex and challenging radiation treatments, and one that many radiotherapy departments don't have the confidence -- or access to sufficient quality assurance tools -- to implement.
